A Swedish side table, circa 1840, in heavily worn blue paint, with the pale, quiet elegance that keeps 19th century Swedish furniture in constant demand. The simple, well-proportioned form, a single generous drawer in the apron over cleanly tapered legs, reflects the craft traditions of provincial Sweden, where furniture was built plainly, honestly, and to last. The blue painted surface has worn through generations of use to a wonderfully textured patina, the soft, weathered color that no new finish can convincingly imitate. It offers a generous surface beside a sofa, service duty in a dining room, or display in a hallway, and integrates seamlessly into Gustavian, country, and contemporary interiors alike. Wear is consistent with age.
